EFT Tapping - working with your body
Tapping can rapidly get to the heart of emotional and physical issues because it is an energy-based, mind-body approach. EFT tapping can quickly release stuck patterns or emotions held in our body, that can lead to physical and emotional dis-ease. It can create lasting change.
Tapping was first trialed with Vietnamese veterans that had severe PTSD, extreme insomnia and night terrors. After trying many other modalities and making very little progress, they tried tapping and it quickly brought life-changing shifts.
If you are feeling stuck or held back, change is possible by working energetically with your body, with a sensitive guide.
Transform emotional and physical pain
Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT tapping) is a revolutionary therapeutic practice based on ancient Chinese acupuncture. Our bodies have electricity (energy) running through them continuously. You can think of the energy channels as a fibre-optic network through your body. When we experience pain, tension, stress and trauma this creates a disruption or block in the flow of our energy.
As we bring your focus to the issue, tapping balances your energy system, which resolves the blocks in your body.
Guided tapping sessions
During an EFT tapping session, you will be guided to lightly tap, with your fingertips, on acupressure points, whilst focusing on a specific issue. You will be guided safely and gently towards whatever you want to release, which will move through and out of your body. As uncomfortable emotions, thoughts or memories shift, you will naturally find that empowering thoughts and feelings take their place.
You will also gain a tool that will support your general emotional and physical well-being. It is a technique that most people quickly feel comfortable using and do so for many things that come up – a tool for life.

EFT tapping - the science
There are emerging studies supported by the NHS proving the efficacy of EFT for a multitude of symptoms.
In a double-blind study undertaken by Dawson Church, PhD, tapping was shown to produce a 24% drop, on average, in cortisol levels (stress hormone) after just 60 minutes of tapping. During that same hour of talking therapy, participants showed a much smaller drop in cortisol levels.
In the US, EFT is authorised as a treatment for war veterans with PTSD, and it has demonstrated benefits for a range of emotional difficulties. Because of the relationship between stress and our bodies, physical symptoms often improve too.
